Adventures other

After an epic day in the Carpathian Mountains we were offered an opportunity to venture to the legendary Transfagarasan highway deep in the Transylvania peaks. In what turned out to be a 12 hour road trip through the Romanian countryside, visiting the most breathtaking scenes, witnessing local life and hiking to the most amazing summit

When we decided to make a detour to Turkey on our travels around Eastern Europe this year it brought about universal signs of upset and disbelief. Whilst down in Plovdiv, Bulgaria we decided to take the night bus over the border and down to one of the world’s oldest and most impressive cities: Istanbul. But

I just spent the last 2 months traveling from Ho Chi Minh City to the very Northern reaches of the Vietnamese border with China. Along the way, I repelled down waterfalls, jumped off of cliffs, kayaked through caves, biked over mountains, and hiked through a sea of terraced rice paddies. When it comes to adventure

Once in a while you have an experience whilst travelling that just hits all the right notes, a perfect day in the most amazing place, something you never even knew about before setting off, and yet it becomes an absolute highlight. During our amazing 11 days in Albania we saw so many sides to this

My love of paddle sports is a recent thing. Fuelling a thirst for adventure led me to try skydiving, bungee jumping, deep-sea fishing, and finally, kayaking. When moving to New Zealand – the adventure capital of the world – trying out white-knuckle action sports that lead you to think about whether you’ve had a good

We love white water rafting! You might have seen the amazing course we tackled in Switzerland last year in which we made our way down the wild waters of the glacial melt from Jungfrau in the most amazing scenery! What could ever come close to that? Well when we were researching which countries on our

When we were planning our route through the Balkans there was one place we had dreamt of visiting for a long time. Figuring out where to base ourselves whilst in Croatia to make the day trip over to these awkwardly located but must do lakes was also something we researched time and time again. Even

It is a little over a month since we started off on what was a dream for a long time, I feel that I need to write something to keep mostly our family and freinds updated (but hopefully our followers and readers too) of our goings on. One of the things I realised early on

Be one with the desert, with the mountains, with the wind. An adventure in Dubai can become the adventure of a lifetime, with opportunities to see the country like few people dare to. By Land Blokarting, a lightweight, wind-powered vehicle, sails along at up to 30 kilometres per hour. Go further afield with a dirt

Well, with the Easter Bank holiday weekend in full flow and spring finally in the air we had major plans to get back out climbing after my knee operation…but the weather had different ideas! With hail stones and heavy showers we had to move the adventures undercover…but who said anything about indoors! We decided to

Bratislava is a city with a delightful mix of cultures and one which may take you by surprise. The old town and centre of this compact city is, as you might expect for this region, full of wonderful old and detailed buildings which line the cobbled streets. However communism has left its mark on this

Adventure!! We love it! In fact we scour the globe looking for our next crazy adventure, whether that is jumping off the side of a mountain, tackling ferocious white water rapids, scaling cliffs with our bare hands or just hanging around at 2000ft! But after visiting the amazing town of Interlaken in Switzerland over the

We are over the moon to be hosting this amazing guest post from Jurgen at Dare2Go! The north-west of Argentina is a fascinating destination to get a taste of the Andean foothills, excellent wines, and colonial towns. The main provincial city of Salta offers all services and an attractive colonial center. It’s a convenient starting

2015 has been a crazy kind of year for us and a rollercoaster in the truest sense of the word, from being originally billed as a quiet year saving up for our long term travels which begin in 2016 it ended up becoming one of the most action packed yet! We ticked off probably more

After watching “The Warriors” years back we were both keep to make our way down to Coney Island when we were in New York. The old time amusement park was somewhere I had visited back in 2008 and found only an eerie ghost town…but fast forward a few years and the height of summer and
